Tips for Successful Marriages

Summary:   A discussion of marriage and tips for making marriages work.


Marriage is virtually something that everyone dreams about. Most young girls by the age of 12 have already decided their every detail of what there perfect day will be like. I can remember playing child hood games in which one game would determine our future and how our lives would be. Of course life has changed and we face the reality of what it takes to survive in a relationship. We grew up to know it takes a lot more work then one piece of paper and someone you just know to determine your future. And that you will have to be with this person for the rest of your life. With Divorce rates at almost twice the rate of marriages some people still haven't grip the reality of the actual work and dedication it takes to be married.

Our world seems to take there own personal growth at the cost of them getting married. Very few people are actually even happy says a survey done in XXL. They remain in there Relationships due to financial situations or obligations of children instead of dealing with there internal feelings. Some times people feel that staying at the cause of a child is a good reason to stay in a relationship. I believe different it only makes people completely bitter towards one another. Your children are dragged into the disputes of to people in whom they love both dearly. You should render any relationship that you might think is a harmful to you or your spouse immediately.

On the other hand it's not likely that some marriages are divine destiny. They always say that there is someone for everybody. You meet some one that has you thinking "Have finally met that person that you always dreamed about"" The person that you can seeyourself with for the rest of your life. So many things cross your mind about this person you can stop thinking about them and are counting down the time until you will see this person again. You must be in love. I say being in love with someone and loving someone is two different things. Being in love with someone means that you think about the person continuously, talk about them continuously and want to be with you continuously, while loving someone is something that you choose to do when you want to do it. Why waste time when you feel that the time is right and you met the right one then you may take the trip that will have an effect on your life and heart forever.

Once a person gets married the love and dedication to your spouse definitely has to increase it's never a time when you can just take off from being married. It's a full time job. When you get married you give up the right to singly make or pursue any dreams without the permission of your other half. Now you two are one and every thing that affects ones life affect the other. A marriage is something that requires you to follow guidelines rules and stipulations. Here are a few helpful tip before and after getting married.

Tips for helpful thinking before Married

  1. Loving From your Heart- Find out what interest the person you are thinking of getting married to. What they do like? Do not like? What they like most about you.
  2. Being a Feeler- Be aware of the emotional experiences that they have already encountered. Be sure not to act in ways that caused them to encounter problems.
  1. Being a fool for love- This might be the hardest of all for some people to do especially the men. I don't mean to be sexist or anything but we all know how hard it is for a man to express there feeling for someone.
  2. Just say it- be sure to say exactly how you feel .Be sure to remind your spouse of how much you love them and how important they are to you. A lot of women think that since men are men they don't have to continuously remind them of there love but they are wrong. Tell them you appreciate there hard day at work
  3. Cater- Make sure you cater to your future husband or wife. Be it her or him we all need a little pampering.
Tips for Helping Your Marriage remain strong

  3. Take time out- Being around others to long can have an effect on the way that you act towards each other. Negative surroundings are not where you should want to be.
  1. Better or Worst- having a spouse is having someone that is there for you when you are down and out or just simply feeling down. When you are down people will turn there back on you
  2. Being a good listener- Times do get rocky and at times like that your spouse really does need you. It's good to have a good listener around. Someone who is there with you to go threw tough times. To air out how feel.
  3. Patients are Virtual- You might not always agree. We are all entitled to our own opinions. The difference is that when you're married you do have to came to some type of solid agreement.
These are just a few helpful hints to helping people get into a good relationship and to help maintain that sturdy relationship. In what ever relationship be it marriage or dating why waste time?
